HAMILTON TWP. - A Scranton man had a loaded .22 caliber revolver under his passenger seat, "a small amount of marijuana" and related paraphernalia, state police at Swiftwater said.

Police said they found the items Saturday during a 12:29 a.m. traffic stop when they pulled over 22-year-old Patrick John Cawley at Exit 302A on Interstate 80 in Monroe County.

Troopers initially pulled over Mr. Cawley for displaying a license plate that did not belong to the vehicle but later found he was wanted by the Monroe County sheriff's office for failing to appear on other charges.

Mr. Cawley was charged with carrying a firearm without a license, possession of marijuana and possession of paraphernalia. He was being held at Monroe County Correctional Facility in lieu of $15,000 bail on a Monroe County bench warrant.
